<h2>Syntax</h2><p><tt>Y = A * B</tt></p>
<h2>Description</h2>
<p>
<tt>A * B</tt> computes the quaternion matrix product. It is implemented
for products of quaternion matrices and for quaternion matrices multiplied
on the left or right by numeric matrices (real or complex), and for all
combinations of pure and full quaternion matrices.
</p>

<h2>Examples</h2>
<pre>
&gt;&gt; [qi, qj, qk] * [qi, qj, qk].'
 
ans = -3 + 0 * I + 0 * J + 0 * K
